Tastosis is overhyped. They only cast because they have a monopoly on korean sc2

@@durag6196 I would respectfully disagree, you may be right on the monopoly bit, but I’m not upset about it.

There's a better combination Tastosis and Brood War

@@durag6196 Tastosis can cast any game and be way better than... WHO? Anyone

@@durag6196 i find that other casters tend to stick more to the game and actually talk about tactics, maps etc rather then go of on a tangent and just laugh at each other all while a major battle is taking place in the match.

He looks to be high class. Fitting as he has seen himself as better than other players for a long time. Classic is there as a model, showing the world the face of Protoss. The fitness guy Dream is in a functional robe. DRG has been the Final Boss. He has experienced highs and lows. Here we can see that he is the most comfortable of them all. I like the photos of this group.

Darth Dark! :D

2:57:07 - That montage "commercial" was incredible

time?

@@Toobmeal During the first matchup

16:12 he didn't say anything else he just laugh a little 😂😂

@@robertrodriguez2655 yea I’m not sure tasteless noticed hahah

🤣🤣

Zerg buffed. Terrans untouched. Protoss nerfed hard. Basically that's what we already expected from blizzard disbalance team.

@@amai2307 Is that anything like M dollar sign?

underrated

I know right? Why not blackburn? Or Pride? Maps hated by pretty much everyone

Wasn't 2k the oldest from that pool?

@@Daniel-yy3ty Yeah i thought this was the reason as well.

they nerf the queen but decide to skip over the unit that needs the biggest nerf............the zergling.

@@stevepeterson4154 Whats so op about the zergling? Why do no pro players complain about lings? Are you just a plat terran who is complaining for no reason? Yea I thought so

Ima copy paste a comment from someone else. The finals of GSL Code S last year had 2 protoss, 2 zerg, 2 terran. Super Tournament finals were 4 protoss, a zerg and a terran. The one Super Tournament this year was a PvZ. If you want to talk about outside of Korea... Serral, Reynor and Clem are stronger players than MaxPax. The Dreamhack EU tournaments are literally all some combination of Serral/Clem/Reynor. Who would you pick to be more likely to beat a Maru, Reynor or Showtime? There have been 6 Dreamhack NA tournaments from 2020 until now. All of them have been some combination of Neeb, Scarlett and Astrea. 8/4/0 in terms of protoss/zerg/terran. I'm glad Trap's 5 premier tournament wins in 2021 don't exist to you. GSL itself has had three finals from the start of 2020 until now that were TvZ or ZvZ. That's across 12 tournaments. You are just wrong. The "meaningless" patch also changed games today. Dark was always going to crush through the group. Does DRG advance without Dream deciding to cheese? Without Classic deciding to let DRG go up to 6 bases? Classic going for a macro opener centered around the nerfed unit and losing seems to show the balance patch did something.

@@noobzerg1990 I have no stake in which race wins.....I don't like one race better than the other I play random.....and Im not a pro. But watching every major tournament it's more than evident Terran especially struggles vs mass ling in mid to late game. Thats a tier 1 unit mind you. Tanks and mines barely do anything vs mass lings. They are too cheap and larva is readily available late game. 3/3 Cracklings with banes basically wipes anything on the ground vs T. Yeah ok....

@@noobzerg1990 I agree with the Terran here. As a Protoss, the speedling needs a nerf. You Zergs get away with 0 IQ early game, easily going up to 3 bases unpunished every time. You need to be able to think and do something to get a mining third that's safe. There needs to be better ways than do or die all-ins to put early pressure on a Zerg. And I'm not talking top 20 GM, I'm talking every league up to Master 2. The Zergling does too much and forces walls every game. THAT is boring. For everyone. Zerg is expanding on the map hammering some poor Terran or Protoss who has to turtle up to survive, then the Zerg sees his bread and butter armies evaporate to better T/P armies, which is boring for the Zerg (and frustrating when losing after throwing 200/200 armies at a 150/200 army that never dies). Zergs have become complacent with easy scouting, easy map control, easy expansions because of the speedling. Put Zergling speed at lair tech and nerf it 0,30 speed and much is done. Also simply remove the lurker from the game (or at least nerf the range to max 7 with the upgrade). Make hatcheries 350 minerals. Then I think Zerg is balanced.

Its because protoss players are all just babies that wanna make box art armies instead of actually trying to outplay their opponents.

@@TheChrisBagel 👍👍yep ok

It's odd. In the IEM world championship there weren't any protosses in the top 10. Feels like you have to cheese or skytoss to win.

@@AB-xo3plexactly. All tho skytoss isn’t a win against a good late game Zerg who just build up coruptors ,vipers , infestor , ultra and can pretty much destroy any toss compositions.

@@robswingler protosses had worse late game than zerg and terran for like 6 years already. And blizzard is consistently nerfing all protoss early cheeses and timing attacks to compliment that.

Well, Classic is hardly in the shape to take on Dark.

Also, abysmal performance in nearly all major tournaments? The finals of GSL Code S last year had 2 protoss, 2 zerg, 2 terran. Super Tournament finals were 4 protoss, a zerg and a terran. The one Super Tournament this year was a PvZ. If you want to talk about outside of Korea... Serral, Reynor and Clem are stronger players than MaxPax. The Dreamhack EU tournaments are literally all some combination of Serral/Clem/Reynor. Who would you pick to be more likely to beat a Maru, Reynor or Showtime? There have been 6 Dreamhack NA tournaments from 2020 until now. All of them have been some combination of Neeb, Scarlett and Astrea. 8/4/0 in terms of protoss/zerg/terran.

Im with you, it feels like the patch was a cure for the symptoms that plagued pvt and pvz not a cure to the root issue-which IMO is not enough valid tools to build strategies with only gimmicks or hoping the opponent does know when you’re going to ground push. It seems to me that the reason why Protoss players developed all these cheeses and proxies was because they worked…and without those what do you have left? Proxy zealot and two base immortal pushes? Its like the patch team believes that secretly, inside of the existing protoss tech, there are winning strats but the pros are too lazy or distracted to find them and that this patch should fix things by removing the distractions. Hopefully they are right.

@@SquallLionhart409 Well written and I agree. When shown that trap won 5 premiere tournaments last year they all say "well those weren't as big" or etc. Its ridiculous

@@SquallLionhart409 your comment needs more upvotes!

same!!!

Did you find out?

Usually :)

he saw the triple barracks had not lifted and saw the number of marines and knew it was an all in at that point in the game. he knew the cc going up was a mind trick.

Yup, I did try to replay it just to make sure. He saw the 3 barracks did not return to base. And saw marines still popping. After which, he did try to confirm if it is all in moving the overload to verify. Otherwist he has a window to cancel the spines.

As others pointed out,he suspected that was the case,and moved his overlord behind Dream's mineral line to scout. But he didn't wait for the scout to prepare. He was certain of it coming. Even commentators point out it is really hard to bounce back from a botched triple barraCks oppening and DRG held it reeaaally well,so only sensible option was going all in and DRG knew that.

Honestly, all these answers are wrong :P The overlord behind Dreams main flew in and saw no SCVs mining, hence they must be headed across map.

@@jameselias8955 except spine 2 and 3 were already building(4:23) before the overlord even started moving(4:30) or the SCVs even left the base (4:25), and I'm not sure if he could see the mineral line when he put down spine 4 also keep in mind that drones don't teleport to the build location, so he decided he needed 2 spines even before then next time you go "everyone's wrong" double check a little... spine 4 was late for the attack, if 2 and 3 had the same timing DRG could have lost

I found it for anyone who wants to know. It's ( I can Hear you) by SusieD7 . Pls add credits to the Artist you feature. Thank you and good music!

Sometimes I have gsl playing on the background just to hear their jokes and banter.

Dual berretas in cs are trash though

Yeah, they're my favorite casting duo by far. Wish we saw more of them elsewhere.

me too!

Maybe, it's both.
